PeopleSoft Talent Management 9.1 to PeopleSoft HCM Integration for eCompensation Manager Desktop


Appropriately compensating your employees is vital to maintaining the optimal talent within your organization.
PeopleSoft’s eCompensation Manager Desktop enables managers to administer compensation programs for workers, either individually or by configured groups, through compensation planning, processing, and allocation while also allowing managers to provide a view of compensation history to their workers.
Cycle-driven processing of multiple pay components is used for compensation planning, processing, and allocation. With integration to performance, you can easily calculate target compensation based on workers’ performance.

The eCompensation Manager Desktop Integration enables you to leverage new 9.1 features. Manager Self-Service has new manager transactions for planning and allocation and a manager alerts page with a compensation dashboard. Enhancements allow for integration to performance ratings and the ability to allocate various components of pay including stock and variable pay. Transactional metrics assist you in the decision making process. Usability is also significantly improved.
Why a Single Application Model is Better


The PeopleSoft-to-PeopleSoft approach when using PeopleSoft Talent Management 9.1 to PeopleSoft HCM Integrations provides many benefits.


Consistent Employee Information
When you view or access your employee information, you want it to always look and function the same. Third party systems might display or manipulate your employee information differently than your PeopleSoft HCM system currently does, and that could impact overall usability.

Integrated Security
Security of your valuable data is vital in today’s business environment. Because the HCM 9.0/8.9 and Talent Management 9.1 applications share a common and integrated security strategy, maintenance of your security is eased and tighter security of your data ensured.


Maintaining Users and Roles
Granting your employees access to the appropriate applications and pages within those applications is easily handled in PeopleSoft applications through the assignment of users and roles. If you were to use a third party solution for your talent needs, you would have to maintain such access controls in two places, thereby increasing your workload and increasing the likelihood of out of synch access across the systems. Having a single application user and role structure minimizes your maintenance workload and ensures consistent application access across your entire system.

Quality User Experience
Oracle has dedicated much of their recent development efforts to increasing the usability of our applications. As you know, a quality user experience results in increased productivity, happier employees, and reduced support costs.

Standard Application Menus
Part of your organization’s overall productivity includes as much standardization of menus, navigational structure and navigational steps as possible. PeopleSoft’s common navigation approach across all of our applications ensures that your employees will not be slowed down by constantly encountering unfamiliar navigational patterns to the important application pages they need to get their work done.

Consolidated Related Content
Since you’ll be managing your core HCM functions and your Talent Management functions with identical technology, the related content across databases can be consolidated and used in all applications.
Talent Management applications enable you to understand your current workforce—what skills you have available and where they are being used. To best manage your business you must understand what skills are critical to your organization and how well people with those skills are performing. You must also anticipate where supply and demand for people, skills, or both are likely to be mismatched. PeopleSoft Talent Management applications provide that information and empower you to take action to achieve the optimal workforce for your organization.

Using our Talent Management 9.1 applications with your existing PeopleSoft HCM system provides you with the best in cutting-edge talent functionality. It also provides additional value to you, such as:

Oracle protects and leverages your existing significant investment in PeopleSoft.
•Industry-leading talent functionality provides best-in-class, enterprise level Talent Management.
•Integrated data and business processes provide talent integration throughout the entire employee lifecycle.
•Employee and business process data that’s structured similarly across all applications and releases.
•Talent Management 9.1 and your existing PeopleSoft HCM applications share the same technical foundation and supportability tools and processes which lead to easier maintenance and upgrade paths.
•Consistent single user interface and enhanced user experience results in increased user adoption and reduced training costs.
•Merged navigational structure eliminates the need to navigate outside of your PeopleSoft system to access talent applications. Consistent navigation patterns in a PeopleSoft-to-PeopleSoft integration eliminates the need to navigate to another system with different navigation.
•Your core employee data and talent profile data is maintained within a single system of record that is easily updated through self-service.
•A common security model enables single sign on, streamlines processes and reduces the cost of security maintenance.
•The ability to display useful (related) content across applications provides enhanced collaboration and more effective decision making.
•New PeopleTools 8.50 features such as drop down navigation, type ahead search, and hover over display enhance employee productivity.

PeopleSoft Commmon Components Feature Overview

PeopleSoft Enterprise HRMS Cumulative Feature Overview

Common Components (sometimes referred to as Enterprise Components) are enterprise-wide features that enhance your ownership experience and help you run your business more efficiently and profitably. These represent functionality that spans multiple products within the PeopleSoft Enterprise HCM product family.


•Catalog Management built on the PeopleSoft technology platform replaces the Cohera Catalog Management System. Catalog Management offers a unique solution to catalog integration and is designed for organizations that want a web-based application to access, transform, and integrate structured content to meet their catalog management needs.

•Common Partner Registration allows an enterprise to share its PeopleSoft applications with outside parties, which reduces the enterprise's workload and streamlines its processes.

•Data Transformer introduces a new ETL utility to extract, transform and load data from remote or local data sources to a data source of your choice. This utility handles high volume data transfers and transformation processing.

•The Integration Services Repository (ISR) is a tool used by Application Development teams to document defined integration points delivered in PeopleSoft applications. The current version of the ISR is hosted on a standalone system where applications groups enter defined integration point information and is not delivered to customers. Customers can retrieve information and metadata details for PeopleSoft delivered defined integration points via PeopleSoft.com and Customer Connection.

•Run Summary feature enables you to view information related to the status of a particular Data Transformer extract, transform, and load process. Although the Process Monitor also provides information regarding a process run, the Run Summary feature offers a more granular view of the individual sub processes, such as chunks, that are not exposed in the Process Monitor.

•Alternate character handling is available for address fields.

•Effective dating is available for address fields, allowing users to enter new address information in advance or correct previous information “as of” a certain date.

•Active Analytics Framework is a suite of tools comprising a closed-loop, decision-making system where specific business issues can be addressed. Business-intelligent applications or transactions can respond when conditions are met and specific actions are recommended.

􀂃The data library is a repository for information within the Active Analytics Framework. Each element in the data library is exposed by way of a term, which is a pointer to a unit of data within the PeopleSoft system. This data may reside in a relational database, or it may be derived at runtime. Active Analytics Framework includes components to define new terms in the data library and can automatically create terms for data elements in a component.
􀂃Business analysts and other functional users define policies with an intuitive user interface. Functional users can create policies that use data elements of various forms and shapes residing in different sources such as the transactional environment, data warehouses, legacy systems, and so on. Active Analytics Framework is triggered by the occurrence of events called trigger points, which in turn generate recommended actions based upon the evaluation of business policies. The combination of trigger point, conditions, and actions is known as a policy. Application developers and functional business analysts use a wizard-like interface to build, manage, and associate trigger points to policies.

􀂃Extensible framework supports the definition and execution of consequent actions. PeopleSoft delivers a built-in action type for displaying alerts to the user. Application developers can create customized action types within product lines to accommodate their functional needs.

•Interactive reports utilize Business Analysis Modeler, a calculation and analysis tool used by various PeopleSoft applications, to calculate and present multi-dimensional data to the user. Interactive reports offer a method of embedding analytic functionality in all PeopleSoft applications.

•Delivered set of Navigation Collection portal utilities including the Navigation Collections component, Navigation Collection system and registry defaults, and Portal utility batch processes. Navigation Collections enable you to create custom navigation pages for specific user roles, departments, or logical groupings of work. Instead of having users traverse through a list of menu items to locate the content that they are looking for, you can simply create collections of useful links tailored to their needs. You can deploy these groupings of links to portal content to different users or groups of users, providing navigation that is tailored to a specific role or business process.

•Pagelet Wizard simplifies this process by enabling you to create pagelets quickly and easily via the web. This tool is powerful in that it can access a variety of data sources and enables deep customization of the way in which data from these data sources is presented, with no coding required.

•Setup Manager reduces the manual effort of identifying the application setup required to support your implementation, easing your implementation effort through the use of setup task lists that identify the setup components that must be configured with your application.

•A common document generation solution used throughout the PeopleSoft Enterprise HCM suite that leverages Oracle’s XML Publisher technology.

•Vastly improved functionality to automatically trigger workflow notifications to inform the next approver in the process of work waiting. User-friendly, configurable, easily maintained and upgraded, and consistent across all adopting HCM applications through the use of the Approval Workflow Engine.

•Utilizing the Approval Workflow Engine, users have the ability to authorize other users to perform managerial tasks on their behalf by delegating authority to initiate or approve managerial transactions.

Integrated Security
Security of your valuable data is vital in today’s business environment. Because the HCM 9.0/8.9 and Talent Management 9.1 applications share a common and integrated security strategy, maintenance of your security is eased and tighter security of your data ensured.

Maintaining Users and Roles
Granting your employees access to the appropriate applications and pages within those applications is easily handled in PeopleSoft applications through the assignment of users and roles. If you were to use a third party solution for your talent needs, you would have to maintain such access controls in two places, thereby increasing your workload and increasing the likelihood of out of synch access across the systems. Having a single application user and role structure minimizes your maintenance workload and ensures consistent application access across your entire system.

Quality User Experience
Oracle has dedicated much of their recent development efforts to increasing the usability of our applications. As you know, a quality user experience results in increased productivity, happier employees, and reduced support costs.

Standard Application Menus
Part of your organization’s overall productivity includes as much standardization of menus, navigational structure and navigational steps as possible. PeopleSoft’s common navigation approach across all of our applications ensures that your employees will not be slowed down by constantly encountering unfamiliar navigational patterns to the important application pages they need to get their work done.

Consolidated Related Content
Since you’ll be managing your core HCM functions and your Talent Management functions with identical technology, the related content across databases can be consolidated and used in all applications.
